It is with broken hearts that the late Jessie Slaney of Fortune announces her passing. Jessie passed peacefully away at the US Memorial Health Care Centre in St. Lawrence on Thursday, August 4, 2022 at the age of 70. Leaving to mourn with a lifetime of wonderful memories are her lifelong partner, Roland Matthews, of 37 years; brothers, Peter and Patrick Slaney of St. Lawrence; special nieces, Patsy Slaney, Michelle Slaney (Edward Ryan), Helen Brushett (Gar Brushett); special nephews, Cole Ryan, Chad Hillier, Tommy Slaney, Tyler Slaney, Brandon Slaney, Paul and Trevor Slaney; special friends, Brenda White and Nellie Stapleton.
The family would like to express their gratitude to the staff of US Memorial Health Care Centre for everything you have done during her last days of life. Also a heartfelt thank you to Cindy Bolt and Pauline Caines who were such incredible homecare workers. We can’t thank you enough for all the love and support.
Jessie was born May 17, 1952 in St. Lawrence. She was most genuine, caring and grateful lady. Always put everyone else before herself. Her everyday routine consisted on calling her special niece Patsy, even if it was 100 times a day and hours on end. Jessie was always so full of love and life. She was always there for us no matter what. She had so much love for music, scratch tickets, Wheel of Fortune, books, bingo and card games. She was the real social butterfly. She made many friend throughout the years at bingo and card games and in our hearts. We know she’s forever grateful.
Jessie has fought a hard battle and finally God had called her home with open arms. We hope you are singing your favorite song “Put another log on the fire” and reunited with your loving family. We will forever miss you Aunt Jessie!
Jessie was predeceased by her parents Peter Slaney Sr. and Ellen Fitzpatrick; brother Thomas Slaney, sister Theresa Slaney; and sister-in-law Theresa (Tess) Slaney.
As per Jessie’s wishes cremation will take place.
In lieu of flowers, in Jessie’s memory donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society, Newfoundland.
